New Functionality

New functionality in Patch YS*5.01*103 provides enhancements with the addition of instruments, the ability to link a TIU note to a consult and print a blank instrument as well as improved navigation.

1. This patch adds twenty-two (22) new instruments to the Mental Health Assistant (MHA3) Graphical User Interface (GUI). These instruments include the following:

ASSIST – Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test

BAM – Brief Addiction Monitor

BASIS-24 - Behavior and Symptom Identification Scale

CDR – Clinical Dementia Rating Scale

CIWA AR – Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment - Alcohol Revised

COWS – Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale

WHYMPI – West Haven-Yale Multidimensional Pain Inventory

ZBI SHORT – Zarit Burden Interview: Short version

2. This patch adds the ability to print a blank instrument form from within the MHA3. Prior to this patch, the user had to print a blank form from the ‘roll and scroll’ interface. This new functionality makes it easier for the Mental Health user to give a patient a hardcopy or an electronic copy of the instrument to fill out at his/her leisure. However, some instruments require the user to have the YSP security key. These instruments are as follows:

AUIR - Alcohol Use Inventory (Revised)

BSI18 - Brief Symptom Inventory 18

HLOC - Health Locus of Control Scale

IEQ - Rotter Internal-External Scale

MBMD - Millon Behavioral Medicine Diagnostic

MCMI2 - Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-II

MCMI3 - Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory III

MHLA - Multidimensional Health Locus of Control: Form A

MHLB - Multidimensional Health Locus of Control: Form B

MMP2S - MMPI 2 Short Form

MMPI2 - Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory 2

NEOPI – Revised NEO Personality Inventory

PAI - Personality Assessment Inventory

RLOC - Rotter Locus of Control

SCL9R - Symptom Checklist-90-Revised

STAI - State-Trait Anxiety Inventory

3. Ability to create a Text Integration Utility (TIU) note containing the results of the instrument administered to the patient and linking it to a consult for that patient.

This patch requires the site to create a new TIU note title called MENTAL HEALTH CONSULT NOTE. If this note title already exists, do not create another note with the same title. If the user selects a consult from the dropdown list in the ‘Link With Consult (optional)’ box of the Instrument Administrator and completes an instrument, the MENTAL HEALTH CONSULT NOTE will be created and filed with the results of that instrument. The note will be linked to the consult selected. After installation, sites can select a different note title to associate with each test using the following menu path:

MHS MANAGER [YSMANAGER]

MHA3 Utilities [YTQ MHA3MENU]

Stop/Re-Start Progress Notes for an Instrument [YTQ PNOTE FLAG]

Example of linking a note title to a test:
